Pro-Palestine protesters occupy Hamilton Hall at Columbia varsity

Students protesting Israel's actions in Gaza besieged Hamilton Hall at Columbia University on Tuesday. They forcibly entered the building, barricading it with wooden chairs, metal tables and trash cans. They unfurled a Palestinian flag and renamed it Hind's Hall. This comes after President Nemat Minouche Shafik refused to comply with protesters' demands leading to a crackdown on ongoing protests.
